Tati and Jeremiah had already met previously, but their true introduction happened at a concert. A mutual friend invited Tati to join them. As the music played and Jeremiah sang passionately, Tati and their friend were amazed by how many people knew the artist. Despite the lively surroundings, they didn't hit it off right away. Jeremiah attempted to start a conversation, but Tati felt shy, and later they both realized their initial impressions were a bit off. Despite a rocky start, things turned around during a trip to Great America. While waiting for the log ride, they chatted and discovered they shared similar goals and dreams of serving where the need was greater. This moment marked the beginning of something special. Their first date was a delightful surprise. They went for brunch at Home Plate, where they spent hours talking about the people they knew and their shared experiences. Later, they grabbed coffee by Nob Hill at one of Tati’s favorite spots and ended the day playing games at an arcade. Looking back, they realized that this unplanned adventure on May 30 was their first official date. As time passed, Tati and Jeremiah became inseparable, growing from casual companions to best friends who navigated challenges together, including difficult relationships and finding supportive communities. As they moved past these obstacles, their friendship evolved into a deeper, more profound love. Their bond is rooted in supporting each other’s goals and dreams, often aligning their aspirations and stepping out of their comfort zones together. When it came to the proposal, they decided to plan it together. Jeremiah had an idea, but he wanted Tati’s input, and she loved the plan. They arranged for both their families to meet at the Fairmont Hotel in San Francisco. In the rooftop courtyard, they had a private moment where they read Ecclesiastes 4:10, a scripture that had been meaningful to them during their dating phase. This moment represented the close of one chapter and the beginning of another, emphasizing their enduring partnership. In front of their families, Jeremiah got down on one knee and asked Tati to marry him. She said yes, twice, and even now, he catches her gazing at her ring with a smile, a reflection of their joyful journey and the love they continue to share. Every glance at the ring serves as a reminder of their special moment and the enduring commitment they have to one another. Their story is one of growth, adventure, and unwavering support. They’re excited to continue this journey together, cherishing each moment and looking forward not just to their wedding, but to the life they will build afterwards, eagerly anticipating the many chapters ahead.
